that was the intent of the law that broke down glass steagall. do you believe it's possible? take jpmorgan and the investment office in london. were they hedging or investing for the bank's portfolio using excess deposits not used for loans? in other words, can we possibly tell and isn't what that volker and sandy weill are worried about? we can't tell. >> this is the beauty of breaking up the banks and doing that. you don't have to worry about the rule anymore. you know, the 9,000 pages in comments and complexities. you don't have to worry about answering the question. ultimately we get the banks down to a manageable size. they make bad risks and blow up. the taxpayer doesn't have to bail them out. we can do this through common sense. not through complex games that are set up that the banks can weave through the loopholes and accumulate risk. this is about monetizing the implicit guarantee, the subsidy the taxpayers provide through too big to fail. we need to break them up. otherwise we are going to see a repeat of the same crisis. i'm excited to see gathering momentum again
